Some modelling was done. Again, I think these things would have gone senior. I do not know what base / equipment you are but I'd been all over these at 400.1 to 500nm of a hub.
It was 40 million when originally announced, and after the departure of the SDPs they were advertising 38 million.

As bar corrected you, the cost to the company was 40 million originally with additional pilots required being 108 (IIRC... very close to that). After the SDPs were removed it was 38 million and 137.

I doubt it...I'm sure modelling was done with deployment of the SDPs as well as the effects of that on the rest of the mix. DALPA has so much to do with the scheduling and production of schedules that they definitely have the tools and would use them.

That is the correct answer.
Great answer. Now. Some of your previous posts on the topic were a little less high road. Agree time to move on......

Hey gang, this shows how poorly I follow things...

The 7 day review during which the LECs/MEC reviewed the TA, that happened post C2012? Or was it always there...

Thanks...

Guys,

I am typing on a phone after a Memorial Day BBQ , so I apologize in advance for any errors in typing, grammar, or logic.


Bar, Carl, and Sailing: I really appreciate your posts on an individual level but when you guys keep responding to each others posts and argue amongst your selves it really detracts from the value of this thread. I pretty much skip over these posts and imagine others do so also.

Just take the high road and stop arguing with each other. We got a deal, a pretty good deal. Perfect, no. But it sets us up for section six pretty .nicely.

Now I am back to drinking Flaming Dr. Pepper's in tribute to my good friend Lt. Michael Pohlkamp who died in a mid air collision on May 13th, 1992 over Whiting Field, Milton Fl.

The Saturday before Mike died we all went out to Seville Quarter in Pensacola and got trashed on FDP's. After she threw us into the cargo area of our Jeep Cherokee and safely drove us home my wife told us we were so drunk our hands were actually on fire at times while consuming some of the flaming shots.

If there is an afterlife for Naval Aviator s Mike is looking down with a big smile on his face.

RIP Michael Pohlkamp

I hope everyone has a great Memorial Day.

NYC 330s are the current plan, but as replacements for the 76...no timing on the replacement.
